 Blue: G'day Don, Well after
arriving back home to Perth, being away for a total of 89
days, I have started to settle back in.. The weather has been
lousy for the first few days but ok now. Didn't see Daniel and
Pamela on the w/e as it was Mother's Day so have just waited
until Tuesday afternoon.
On Monday I went into my former work to
catch up with my mates and to pay Norm for the
ball caps etc I gave people as a thank you for hosting
me. A big 'if' but who knows there just may
be a job for me back there sometime, just have to wait and
see now.
My car has played up on me whilst I have been away and I
now need to new batteries which hopefully I will get today. A
friend had loaned me the use of her car, a VW Beetle, neat
little car indeed.
Last night my two little darlings were dropped off by their
mother, late as usual but I bit my tongue. Great to see them,
and after finishing their homework, I gave them the presents I
brought back for them from the USA and England. Great to see
two smiling faces again. Pamela has lost a few more teeth
during my absence. I then showed them a slide show of the 700
odd photo's of my trip...Pamela decided at around 400 it was
'boring' but Daniel enjoyed the show.
This morning we were up at 0600 and I got them ready for
school, platted Pamela's hair and took them back home to their
Mother, awaiting Friday afternoon when I have them for the
weekend. My fridge is looking pretty interesting with the
magnets, I have missed a few places unfortunately, but that's
life.
In a weeks time I will be moving house to next door but
one, so will start getting ready for that move. I am toying
with the idea of buying a guitar and learning to be
Australia's version of Tommy Cox after experiencing such a
fantastic show at John Bay's home. What a treat that was.
People have asked me what the highlight of my trip was, I
have said to them that NYC, Washington DC, Tommy's concert and
the Hunley event were. But, in fact THE highlight was meeting
you guys and your families, something I will always treasure,
always. Once again I would like to thank you all for making it
so enjoyable, would love to do it again someday.
In the meantime, who is on their way to see me and Perth?
Blue *_*
